The inside story

If there’s one place you must see while you’re in Lisbon it’s the Alfama District, one of the Portuguese capital's oldest and most charming neighbourhoods. Spread across a towering hill, this enchanting quarter offers panoramic views of the city’s rooftops and the Tagus River. It’s maze of narrow cobbled streets are lined with independent shops and trendy cafes. A place full of character.

Alfama District takes you on a journey through Lisbon’s rich past, which dates back to the Iron Age. Over time, it has been inhabited by various cultures such as the Romans, Visigoths and other Germanic tribes. Eventually, it became the heart of Moorish Lisbon, leaving a lasting impression on the neighbourhood’s identity and architecture.

The emblematic quarter is known for its traditional Fado music, a melancholic style that tells stories of love, loss and longing. Head to one of the many fado houses and savour tasty Portuguese cuisine, washed down with a glass of port, while being serenaded by the soulful melodies.

Alfama District is also home to iconic landmarks like Castle of São Jorge and Lisbon Cathedral. Lose yourself in its squares and alleys, discovering quaint shops selling local crafts and delicacies. This charming neighbourhood will enchant you with its beauty and culture.
